Description:

Abstract:

The striped newt (Notophtalmus perstriatus) is identified as a Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) by Florida’s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy and is considered to have a low population status and declining population trend. The striped newt is endemic to southern Georgia and northern Florida, occurring in widely scattered populations.

Purpose: Identify recent known locations for Striped Newts in Florida

Supplemental_Information:

Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.
